Subject: bug#74624: 29.4.50; Gnus cannot parse some filenames(UTF8) in an attachment

[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]
From time to time i get emails with attachments from my colleges, which they send from
"Roundcube" web-interface. 

Often, i cannot open these attachments by =RET=(gnus-article-press-button)
or save them =o=(gnus-mime-save-part) with correct name.
(interestingly =X-m=(gnus-summary-save-parts) works correctly)

The reason is gnus cannot parse correctly some attached filenames.

The example of such attachment (I took it from gnus-summary-show-raw-article)

 --=_d38c0abddd645077f401d42fa430d9d5
Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64
Content-Type: application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.wordprocessingml.document;
 name="=?UTF-8?Q?=D0=9E=D0=B1=D0=B7=D0=BE=D1=80_2024_=28=D0=BD=D0=B0_=2Ed?=
 =?UTF-8?Q?ocx?="
Content-Disposition: attachment;
 filename*0*=UTF-8''%D0%9E%D0%B1%D0%B7%D0%BE%D1%80%202024%20%28%D0%BD%D0;
 filename*1*=%B0%20.docx;
 size=10

c2Rmc2FmYXNmCg==
--=_d38c0abddd645077f401d42fa430d9d5--

I have tried to examine the reason. As i see it,  
gnus-data for such attachment is formed incorrectly:

(#<buffer  *mm*-480444>
     ("application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.word..."
     (name . "Обзор 2024 (на .docx"))
     base64 nil
     ("attachment" (size . "10")
     (filename . "Обзор 2024 (н\320")) nil nil nil)

One can see that the filename is broken.
It should be "Обзор 2024 (на .docx" just like the name.

I have attached the example of the mail(one can open it with nndoc)


Please, could you fix this bug.
